This short documentary features the candid, humorous, and heartfelt narratives of three lesbians who challenged societal norms in the mid-1980s. The participants openly share their life experiences and what being a lesbian means to them, offering viewers a brief yet powerful glimpse into the struggles, forms of resistance, and networks of solidarity experienced by queer women during that era.
“Lesbians” not only makes personal stories visible but also stands out as an early example of Pam Walton’s effort to create a collective memory through individual narratives. Despite its short duration, the film delivers a strong political stance and holds a unique and transformative place in queer cinema history.
